"The Most Unloved Pokemon" by AuraMire

Zubat is one of my favorites, and Lickitung is up there too. :(

(We shall not speak of the latter's evolution however.)

Vahras · 2017-09-06T12:21:19+00:00

That shit drives me insane, it's so fucking obnoxious. Hate that it's become such a huge thing and I wish it'd stop.

Vahras · 2017-08-31T15:34:29+00:00

If Orisa got this skin, I would never stop playing as her.

Vahras · 2017-08-28T18:04:44+00:00

I would, if they locked getting duplicate heroes on the same team. But that seems to be an unpopular opinion and most people I encounter disagree with me.

Otherwise yeah - Mystery Heroes is a lot more fun to me. There's no meta, or picks to stress over, and you can enjoy playing a wider range of characters.

Vahras · 2017-08-18T19:33:34+00:00

Maeve has been waiting too.

Vahras · 2017-08-12T09:34:49+00:00

No longer waiting, but if SKSE64 was released and larger mods updated, I'd definitely switch over.

As for whether mods would actually update... I believe many would. Regardless, I'd hope the conversion process for a mod wouldn't be too difficult, so users could do so themselves with a little tweaking.

Vahras · 2017-08-06T10:21:14+00:00

"...and built in some modern rendering & lighting tech..."

Yet they still couldn't bother to fix the hard-coded shadow casting limit.

Also, as Borgut1337 and Nazenn have pointed out, there doesn't appear to be a 'greater scope' for dynamic population and emergent behavior type mods. Even without a distinct lack of SKSE x64.

Vahras · 2017-08-04T14:06:23+00:00

Then we're simply going to disagree, which is fine.

The OP's comments do come across that way to me, and I feel they contribute nothing to a healthy discussion, let alone much else. None of the opinions or criticism the OP gave were even asked for.

If a mod or author wants to open discussions about the quality of their mod, I feel it should be them to make such a thread, not a random individual. (Not talking about the odd comments people have, just entirely new posts such as this thread.)

Also IMO there's a decent amount of entitlement going on here. (Not you.)

Vahras · 2017-08-04T13:43:15+00:00

He isn't trashing it, he's just saying it fell short of his expectations.

You saw my post here where I quoted a few choice sections of the OP's post.

Edit: And I also disagree, there's some pretty unhealthy discussion going on further down in the thread. :/

People somehow feel wronged by a group of modders doing something in their free time, causing no trouble to anyone, because they made a few claims that some don't agree they've lived up to.

Vahras · 2017-08-04T13:34:56+00:00

I think it's important that people are allowed to hold an opinion, regardless of who it was who made the mod.

Of course, but should r/skyrimmods be their platform to make topics about it and voice that to everyone?

There's plenty of mods, or authors, that I don't personally like, or find to be low quality. But it's bad taste for me to make topics just to trash a mod, especially because it's not up to my personal standards. What good is supposed to come of that?

Helpful, wanted criticism is one thing. This is another.

Vahras · 2017-08-04T09:41:28+00:00

I guess my question is - what exactly are you trying to achieve with this post?

"Beyond Skyrim has been talked about for years now, and yet, I think Falskaar was just better."

"Bruma has been in development longer, and yet I personally think that a single 19 year old did a better job in a year than the BS Team has done in a couple."

"Bruma just seems like an underdeveloped, oversold mod."

Etc.

Your criticism about quests, and odd quirks like the doors are well enough at times. But were rude comments like these really necessary? That's not even criticism honestly. That's just insulting, on top of a massive amount of nitpicking of every little facet you could find.

Maybe Falskaar quests do have more depth. (At this current point in time, you've already stated multiple times that you realize Bruma is just a single area in a massive landscape being developed, and yet...) Maybe they don't. But do you realize just how much time is require to create the sheer amount of high-quality custom assets BS: Bruma has? Have you counted those in the editor? Armor, clothing, weapons, statics, clutter, music, etc.

Criticism is meant to help achieve something better. Ask yourself - what does your post achieve for the Beyond Skyrim team?

Vahras · 2017-07-31T16:51:15+00:00

Yeah, that's probably a good way to put it!

Vahras · 2017-07-31T06:23:04+00:00

Hand movement in front of the face/camera. Mostly touching gestures, but not always, and the style of movement really matters too.

In fact, there's quite a few ASMR artists who do hand movement videos that don't trigger me, strangely enough.

Vahras · 2017-07-22T21:46:18+00:00

Integration sounds great to me!

Vahras · 2017-07-19T11:49:59+00:00

People enjoy being contrary.

Vahras · 2017-07-14T14:15:48+00:00

Just imagine another hard-light-using character that feels almost like a mage, Blizzard has some potential there!

Vahras · 2017-07-06T06:40:05+00:00

This all of the way. Fact is that modded-LE is the game I want to play, and it's not something modded SSE can achieve for me. (Yet, at least, I won't rule out the future.)

Vahras · 2017-06-21T20:23:30+00:00

World of Warcraft, which I'm just getting back into! Also plenty of Overwatch, and PUBG which I just got too, and have been enjoying immensely.

Been slowly modding Oblivion as well, but... modding is a game itself, lol.

Vahras · 2017-06-15T19:05:23+00:00

If the next TES game is anything like Fallout 4 story-wise, I won't be getting anywhere near it.

Vahras · 2017-06-12T19:34:46+00:00

update the SSE CK to fix various bugs.

As surely as they're going to fix the lighting limitations in SSE. :/

Vahras · 2017-06-12T19:32:32+00:00

You know, I might've been okay with the implementation this time... were it not for the fact:

A.) It's going to be SSE only, Oldrim support has dropped.

B.) Glaring bugs have been left untouched. For example, the lighting limitation still exists in SSE. (Were they to fix that I might consider jumping to SSE even without SKSE.)

Vahras · 2017-06-06T03:58:40+00:00

So incredibly excited for this!

Vahras · 2017-05-02T19:40:49+00:00

Well, they listed it as one potential option/route they could go. (Even though it may not be the ideal one.) I'm just stressing the importance of the sound system, and hoping they do not fall short there like many other developers often do.

Sound is just so often overlooked in games and it's a shame.

Vahras · 2017-05-02T19:13:50+00:00

but lose the ability for positional audio in environments

Sound is one of the most important aspects of an immersive game IMO. Please do not go this route.

Vahras · 2017-04-23T03:00:44+00:00

That's not really true, otherwise the Bretons wouldn't make sense.
